Behringer UMX610 USB MIDI Controller

The UMX610 MIDI Controller from Behringer is an extremely flexible master keyboard with a control section for a wide range of applications. Do you need independent control of hardware synthesizers or general MIDI sound modules? How about control over effects devices? Maybe you just want to operate sequencing software or computer plug-ins from a convenient remote location? The UMX610 provides total flexibility and tremendous ease of use, allowing you to realize your ideas intuitively.

22 Assignable Controllers

When it comes to remote control, you get 8 knobs, 10 assignable switches, 2 wheels (Pitch Bend & Modulation), 1 pedal port and 1 fader, for a total of 22 assignable controllers built into the Behringer UMX610 -- which means total control of your operating environment. Once you've assigned the parameters for a particular scenario, simply store it in your user preset.

Superb Playability

All UMX Series controllers feature the custom-designed key-bed, which has been praised by some of the industry's top product reviewers and players alike for its responsiveness and playability.

More Than Just MIDI

As an added bonus, Behringer has included the UCA222 USB Audio Interface with the UMX610 to access your PC or Mac computer's audio capability. You can use the UCA222 to connect sound modules directly to any free computer USB port and listen to either the input or output signal via headphones or through active studio monitors. The UCA222 also features an additional S/PDIF optical output for direct digital conversion and is completely powered via USB--no external power supply needed. With its dual analog mono inputs, any line-level device, such as a mixer or tape deck, can be connected hassle-free to your computer.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.
"Wonderful keyboard,terrible software."

Sound:
I am basing my 10 rating strictly on the keyboard itself and not the software that's included.
The overall design of this controller is brilliant..very solid,compact and simple,but with very smooth controls and fantastic full size keys with semi-weighted action....I am really surprised and amazed by this keyboard!!
Feature:
The EnergyXT DAW that came with this keyboard is virtually useless without the upgrade.
The upgrade was a nightmare,as the upgrade is NOT available for download directly from their website!
You pay for the license first,and then you wait for someone from the company to send it to you via e-mail(whenever they feel like getting around to it).
I waited a week for them to send me the upgrade and when I received it,I spent another week trying to install it and it never worked(I have Windows 7).
I finally got my refund,but I'll never deal with EnergyXT again.The DAW's simplicity is nice,but since it is such an unstable program,it's a sick joke....my advice; stay far away from EnergyXT & save your money for a program that is known to work.
Quality:
The build quality is the best I've ever seen for the money.
Value:
The keyboard itself is the best value out there.
Manufacturer Support:
Behringer is EnergyXT's distributor,so you'll have to deal with EnergyXT directly....they are helpful,but very slow.
